Who is Alex?

Hi, I’m Alex Bucher, a self-motivated designer with six years of experience. I’ve been designing and creating everything from websites and videos to handouts and presentations. My design process starts with and centers around one question: “Why?”. The “why” is what drives the design and the overall results of any project. I’m excited that you’re here and can’t wait to see what we will create together.

Resume

People ignore designs that ignore people.

– Frank Chimero

Empathy

One of my greatest strengths is empathy. It allows me to form a stronger, more emotional connection with a target audience.

Warmth

From social posts to brochures, I strive to make audiences feel seen and understood when they engage with any marketing material.

Authenticity

I like to focus on a more earnest and genuine design approach. This idea is always in my mind as I work on any project, big or small.

Testimonials

Jeanmarie Levy - User Experience Designer

As a UX Designer I had the pleasure of working alongside Alex and I was blown away by their talent, attention to detail and passion for creating dynamic designs. Alex was able to take two very complex brands and lead a full re-brand that enabled our organization to better tell our story and reach more students/educators. This is not an easy task and Alex did this with ease and in a self-directed manner. I was always so impressed by Alex's determination to ensure that our organization was able to serve the most underserved and most vulnerable populations. Alex's talent is rare but what is more rare is their compassion for others and ability to connect with people - all great qualities of a stellar designer. Any organization would be lucky to work with Alex!
Chris Savage - Network Manager

Alex was our graphic designer, producing graphics and memes for our Facebook network. They have a distinctive style, are super creative, and very attentive. Their work gave our network a unique feel and they were very responsive to our Community Managers when they made graphics requests. I give Alex my highest recommendation and believe they'd be a great addition to any organization that is fortunate enough to have them on their staff.
